Fibre Reinforced Concrete (FRC)

Fibre Reinforced Concrete (FRC)

For the first time in Udemy, you will learn about Fiber Reinforced Concrete (FRC). One of the most important topic in the field of construction engineering.

Do you know that cracking of concrete is inevitable and at the same time civil and structural engineers are spending much time and efforts to control this phenomenon. One of the best solutions, nowadays, is the use of Fiber Reinforced Concrete (FRC).

In this course you are going to learn about Fibre / Fiber Reinforced Concrete (FRC) incorporating both metallic and non-metallic fibres. By the end of the course you are expected to:

• Know different types of fibers and their properties

• Conducting flexural analyse of FRC elements

• Become a designer and being able to design structural members made of FRC

• Understand durability and sustainability of structures incorporating fibres

Course teaching will be based on explaining the theoretical part and then illustrating numerical or practical examples. To enhance and secure a better understanding, some practical images from civil engineering field will be shown and students will get a copy of Excel analysis spreadsheets. In addition to the online quizzes, students will get some exercises to solve on their own time.

Join the course and gain the cognition and knowledge to become a structural designer and analyser of FRC elements.
